two? >> this is a good tip for anyone who doesn't want their left majors to be dried out. go ahead. take that one. >> a common question we get is how do i reheat myovers? i first like to point out leftovers should be refrigerated and eaten within two or three days. from a food safety perspective, make sure you slice that turkey meat off the bone and go ahead and put it in an airtight container in your refrigerator. as far as reheating, go ahead and spoon a little turkey gravy or turkey broth in between the sliced meat and go ahead and reheat it the next day in the oven at about 250 degrees for about ten to 15 minutes. >> in the oven, not a microwave. >> previous it or not, we have instructions for microwave. >> i'm out of there.

>> in a pinch you have that, in the microwave. >> here is another from sherry. i'm using a bag to cook my turkey. that's what we do. where should the vegetables be put? inside it, under the bird, on the side? what veggies should i use? that's a toughy. >> it's another good question. common question we get at the talk line. we tell folks you absolutely can use an oven cooking bag. we adhere to 350 as opposed to 325. as far as the vegetable placement, it's a personal preference. you can put them in the cavity. you can put them in the bag below. there is mangolden ways to go about cooking your turkey. it's not just something you're going to cook in the oven. you can cook it in the oven, but we have directions for in the microwave, electric counter top roaster, deep frying. there are so many ways you can cook your turkey. >> from jim, my wife wants to add green peppers and lemon

wedges to the cavity of the turkey for seasoning as a cook. is this okay? >> absolutely. yeah. that's just fine as well. there are so many different ways you can cook your turkey. so many different recipes that we're introducing now. something i'd like to share that we're pretty proud of. butterball introduced butterball cookbook plus app. you can download this app. there are over 250 recipes, great ways to go ahead and incorporate that leftover turkey. we have some basting tips on there. it's really something pretty cool. we're proud of it this year. >> the ipad has become like an essential thing in the kitchen. >> thanks, keep your e e-mails coming because we've gotten lots of them because she'll be answering them the rest of the show. >> you can also tweet. they're trying answer them. >> it doesn't feel like thanksgiving if you don't have

macy's thanksgiving day parade to see, to watch at home. here in new york, macy's has been putting on the biggest thanksgiving show in the country for the past 86 years, as a matter of fact. rick, you ever a front row, lucky guy. >> he's been there for 50 of those years. from the upper west side, hey, rick. >> hey there. it's kind of true. this is the best seat, absolutely. everything gets condensed into one small spot right where the parade gets going. so you see all of the balloons back here on 77th street. they have them lined up on two different streets here. all the balloons, they blow them up yesterday. we have video from yesterday. they turned that into a big event. 500,000 people come near these couple of blocks. i still live in these couple of blocks. you end up with 500,000 people right here coming to see this. it's crazy. a mad house. we've got a chopper overhead from wnyw. you can see the shots coming right here.

kind of everything getting going. also take a look at the shot we have right by the fox studios on 6th avenue. you can see people there already lining up. there will be about 3 million people lining up to watch this parade. but at this point, all of the balloons and all of the floats are packed in to this tiny area right here on the upper west side. it is a lot of excitement. one of you guys afraid of clowns? >> i am. >> no, i'm not. >> i'm not afraid of them, but i don't find them endearing at all. >> okay. are you? >> no, i'm fine with them. bear in mind, there are hundreds of them that are all right in one spot. if you find them not endearing, you might be panicking. [ laughter ] obviously everybody concerned about the weather for the parade and thanksgiving. take a quick look.

we could not have asked for a better travel weekend. a very nice start to the day in the northeast and temperatures today will be getting into the 50s and 60s with a bunch of shine of the tomorrow is nice. enjoy that because it will get much colder on saturday. towards the southeast, another sunny day. a little rain in the afternoon across parts of missouri. anyway is going to be light. not going to cause problems. yesterday we were very warm in the northern plains. today you're going to get to 56 in minneapolis. that's your early morning temperature. temperatures will be falling into the 20s by tonight and some snow falling. out across the west, finally a break with all of that rain that we've seen. we'll see more sunshine. even in the pacific northwest. and warm in arizona. all right, guys. that's it. i'm waiting for the fab five to get here. the gymnasts. i'm excited about that. >> didn't they rename them and move it from fab five? 'cause that's the michigan team,

chris webber's crew. i'm going to look into that for you. >> do some investigative journalism. >> it would be cool have a renaming. >> i'll check it out. we have to move on. we've been following this. fox news alert now, cease fire between israel and hamas appears to be holding at this hour. that is good news. the agreement halting eight days of intense air strikes, but will it last? leend la vittert live. this morning he's been monitoring this for weeks and leeland, it appears to be holding. what are you seeing and hearing there? >> all is quiet on the southern front, as they say here. the only sounds we have been hearing is the convoys going north away from the gaza border carrying the israeli tanks. armored bulldozers that were here in these very same fields getting ready for a ground invasion and the israeli military said they are deactivating some of their reserve troops they had called up, indicating the israelis have

great confidence in this deal that has been made. israeli civilians also seem to be having a great deal of confidence in this. once again, moving back into the communities that were in the line of fire. for the past eight days, we've been at the shopping center. it was deserted. now you can barely find a place to park as israelis begin to try and put their lives back together with a cease fire and return to some sense of normalcy. >> we want to be at home. we want to start again. they need to go to school and kindergarten. >> we can go out and do whatever we want. >> of course i feel better. i haven't left the house in two weeks. i feel better, but still. >> any minute the alarm can go on. >> now, in the gaza strip, hamas and islamic jihad claim victory. mass celebrations in the streets. they are by hamas.

they have a major clean-up operation that they need to take care of as the israelis leveled about 1500 separate targets, many of those part of hamas' military organization, but also a number of large buildings, including the local banks. so they'll have to start cleaning that up as well. going forward, here is what the watch court over the next 24 to 36 hours will see the military demobilize. there is a chance both sides have talked about that you're going to have one or two errant rockets. either side, though, that tends to not destroy the cease fire, but so far as our chief who watched a number of these cease fires said, it's surprisingly quiet. it appears the united states and egypt put a lot of pressure on both sides to make this deal work from the very beginning. back to you in new york. >> thank you. egypt, essential in all this. they need to stop smuggling arms to the folks, to the hamas, from

iran. >> but a big moment for president morsi who stepped up. >> it was a big moment. >> shocked a lot of people. >> critics there are still upset with him because they feel we've got a lot of problems here, high unemployment, other issues going on and he's in the spotlight making big splash internationally. all righty, coming up, what did the f.b.i. find inside paula broadwell's home? was she really storing state secrets? there is a huge update to this story. >> it's that time again. michelle malkin counting down her top political turkeys of the year. i'm sure she doesn't have much to talk about this election year. >> she doesn't hold back, does she? >> no i on a

didn't make the list? erfurt did candiy controlly. number three, who do you got? >> liberal media, which candy controlly is part of. i'm sure that will offend somebody. the performance i think not only of candy, but all of the debate moderators who acted as tag team members for obama, i think it just sort of reflected an entire ethos of the washington media who saw themselves and acted more like lap dogs than they did as real journalists throughout the campaign. and i think the white washing of this administration's scandals has had accumulative effect in blinding the american electorate. i think it in large part, it's the liberal media that played a huge role and had a lot of leverage in determining what the final results of the election were. >> it would have been interesting to see univision

debate, wouldn't it have been? because we've got some of the most revealing questions, right? >> about fast and furious, absolutely. >> that was fantastic. >> turkey number two, big labor. >> well, sure. they've delivered a huge happy strikes giving, unhappy strikes giving which of course will continue into tomorrow and black friday. but dial back earlier in the year, everything from the chicago teacher strike, which left hundreds of thousands of students bereft and families in dire straits while they protested some very necessary cuts and reforms to public employee pensions, to the seiu, u, w, international long shoremens association which has been cook up a port strike that even before it's actually gone into effect, has already affected shipping decisions and retailer decisions. bottom line, of course, is that all of these actions have helped

solidify political power. but at the expense -- not only of the economy, but, of course, their own rank and file workers, welfare. >> we have a little montage of someone who made number one on your turkey list. let's play that sound and you can explain who we're looking at. >> you do know that we don't have anything to do with priorities usa, that by law we're not allowed to coordinate with them and by law, we don't have anything to do with their ads. >> we're not blaming our predecessor by any means. but we don't think we should return to the same policies that crashed the economy. >> i was asked why it became such a political circus and who was the first person to respond to the libya attacks? mitt romney. and mitt romney was criticized for that response because it was political. >> there are a bunch of different points in that one. stephanie cutter. >> yeah, that's right. she will make it a lot easier for me to mash my potatoes today 'cause all i have to do is think about the incessant lies she

told during this campaign season. she is the answer to the question, how low can you go in a campaign season? and i think -- there was a very competitive year this year for political turkeys. but she, of course, vaulted to the top of the list. >> some of the things we saw in there, the priorities usa, remember the ad saying that mitt romney killed my mom. >> yep. >> my wife, i think it was. killed my wife. >> michelle malkin, always good to see you. you definitely do not pull any punches and i like that. >> happy thanksgiving. >> take care, guys. >> e-mail us and tweet us your top political turkey of the year. up next, what does thanksgiving mean to you? peter johnson, jr. here with a special message that might make you think twice. >> plus, if you could pick anybody, anybody at all to sit at your thanksgiving table.

this is thanksgiving. i remember cold mornings on 34th street, with my mother and father as we waited for bullwinkle and underdog and smoky the bear as they floated in downtown. my daughters, my wife, 40 years later issues awaited sponge bob and arthur. remember arthur? each year we relive the excitement, the balloons flying as high as our dreams, the characters alive and dancing in the wind, the longing for the thanksgiving meal, i can't wait. the warm strong hand of our loved one felt even through the thickest mittens. the appreciation for a time, a meal a date, the gratitude for a life spent together. the prayer that unites us, the glance, the hug, the reunion of family and friends, the intersection of time past and times to come.

our forefathers thanked god for the gift of the harvest and sought blessings for the winter ahead. we give things, too, for wounded warriors and faithful spouses, for courageous cops and fearless firefighters, but most of all for ordinary heros who overcome the perils of modern life and help keep our families together. we thank god in each other for the quiet supermen and women who teach our children, who take care of our youngest and oldest, who cook our food, who pick our crops, who minister to our souls. they star in the most successful reality show ever, ever on the air. american life. inspired by the book, some of us attend service on this day and sing "now thank we all our god with hearts and hands and voices," and some of us line the parade rights of america or sit in our living room and stare at the balloons and laugh at the clowns and tap our feet to the show tunes, and give thanks for

the day together. in giving thanks for the past, we look forward to our future with gratitude and with a smile. we discover again that a second helping, a hand outstretched, a thank you for the smallest pleasures can really make us feel very good. so i will enjoy this parade with veronica and i'll miss blanch who is away and i hope you do, too. so whether this parade or we're calling one you saw when you were six years old, have an incredible day. we don't get o say often enough, but mean it. thanks for watching us on "fox & friends." i hope that makes you feel as good hearing it as we feel saying it. i know clayton feels that way. happy thanksgiving to you and your beautiful family, clayton. >> thank you. >> and dave and ainsley. god bless you. >> thank you so much, peter. and happy thanksgiving to you. the best dressed man at the parade this year.

this turkey has been spotted around a wisconsin town running alongside bikers, walking down highways, wildlife experts say they've never seen anything like this. if you see this turkey, please call authorities and and they'll put it on your thanksgiving day dinner. juliet? >> i have a feeling we're not going to be seeing that turkey around this time of year much longer. all right. he cooks up meals for nba superstar duane wade. even teamed up with the first lady, michelle obama, for let's move. but now celebrity chef richard ingram is partnering with wal-mart to deliver tips for your turkey day and joining us live from his mom's kitchen with some advice on how to serve up the perfect thanksgiving meal. just before that, i want to let everybody know there is a little delay, so don't freak out. he's not ignoring me and i'm not ignoring him. good to see you, sir. >> it's wonderful to see you. good morning. >> good morning. so we've got a personal menu,

list of things that you have for your thanksgiving meal. what are some of the things that might be a little unusual? you're down there in miami, is that right? >> definitely. i'm here in miami in my parents' home with all of my children. r.j., evan, nazi, kwame, my mother, and my wonderful wife, stacy. >> and what are you guys cooking up today? >> we're doing fried turkey today. i have a rib eye roast that i've marinated, candy yams. my mother did a wonderful rum cake. my boys are pointing to the red velvet cupcakes we'll be icing. we have a lot of good things. i wish you were here to smell it. >> believe me, i wish i was there, too. i'm a miami girl. maybe i can catch the knicks flight out. we'll see. let's get into some of the problems that people have when they're trying to get ready for

a wonderful thanksgiving dinner. a lot of times we go to the store and think we have everything. we come home and forget things. like for instance, buttermilk. what happens if we're missing buttermilk? >> yeah. that is a major problem. especially if you are making red velvet cupcakes and don't have buttermilk. you can take one cup of whole milk and one tablespoon of white vinegar, makes it together and there you are, your home made buttermilk. >> and what happens about this light brown sugar? a lot of folks, we got the regular brown sugar, but need the light. a lot of recipes call for that. what do we need to do? >> to create your own light brown sugar, you take half cup of dark brown sugar, a half cup of white sugar, and then you would mix that together and then that would give you your light brown sugar at that point. >> that seems easy. also we have spices, but

sometimes we run out of them. we don't go to the spice rack to figure out what we're missing. give me an idea of some things we can substitute. >> to be able to substitute, you can take -- for instance, if you're looking for cinnamon or nutmeg, if you can find allspice, that encompasses a little bit of nutmeg, a little cinnamon, a little clove as well. so that will take the place of whatever you're missing. >> so the headline here that when we first came in to this interview is that you are the personal chef for duane wade of the miami heat. give us a little inside information. obviously he's a great guy because he gives you the day off on thanksgiving. what's something you would cook for him on a day like this? >> well, one of his favorite dishes is my sweet potato pie. so i made sure that even though i'm not going to be there today to do thanksgiving for him, i

made sure that he had a couple of sweet potato pies at the house waiting on him when he gets back. >> richard, i have to go home and i'm not going anywhere today. so do you want to send one of those sweet potato pies up to my place, please do. thanks to you and your family for joining us today. we appreciate it. >> definitely. give me the address. >> believe me, i will. thanks. happy thanksgiving to everybody there. again, sorry about that delay. it's television. things like this happen. it's also thanksgiving, a day when we feast with our families and loved ones. why does john stossel say today was almost starvation day? but first, this day in history 1972, "i can see clearly" by johnny nash, the number one song. oh, i remember it so well. i was just a little two-year-old back then [ male announcer ] in blind taste tests, even ragu users chose prego.

welcome back. 7:52 on the east coast. quick headlines. you sold me out. that's what a man on trial for murder shouted before he poured a cup of water over his attorney's head. he pulled the stunt in front of the judge and jurors during closing arguments. power was later found guilty of killing his neighbor. apparently thieves don't want to steal your toyota prius. only one in 606 prii from the years 2008 to 2010 had been stolen as of june. that's according to the national insurance crime bureau. officials say they can't sell the parts specifically made for priuses. dave, over to you. >> is it prii? we'll get to the bottom of that

later. while most of you are probably asking friends and family what they're thankful for today, john stossel is asking a different question. >> public. >> if it was private, they would probably charge you a fee for looking. >> i'd say public. >> public. >> wouldn't you say public? otherwise we wouldn't be here right now, right? >> what you may have missed is john asking, public or private, what's better? stossel says this actually has a lot to do with thanksgiving. he's here to explain how. why were you asking these people public or private? what's better? what does it have to do with thanksgiving? >> it's a little complicated. i was asking, which is better in bryant park, this park not far from here that used to be a cess pool and dangerous and ugly. that was when it was run by the government, like many parks and the government said, we don't have enough money to do it. then a business improvement district took it over, the local business owners said we want to take care of this. and now it's unbelievably nice.

yet, when you go to the park and say, which is better, public or private? everyone says, well, public, of course. public is shared. but shared often means public as in public toilets. nobody takes care of it. and we'll cover a bunch of parks today. it relates to thanksgiving because we think of thanksgiving as feast time. few people know the pilgrims almost starved because when they came to america, they said, we're going to practice communal farming. we'll all share it. so the teen-agers especially said, oh, i can't work today. i'm not feeling well. people didn't work. they didn't grow much. they languished in misery as governor -- >> they had no incentive. >> they had less incentive and not enough and also people would take more for themselves and people didn't want to grow a lot that they could keep for themselves. finally when they assigned each person a parcel of land and said, you can keep what you produce for yourself, prosperity happened! but we still don't it!

>> so this gets us to the fact that you are thankful for above all else, property rights. why? >> private property. 'cause it allows people to make themselves wealthy. we also have a guy on my show tonight who works in south america. south america is poor not because they don't work hard. it's because they don't have deeds to their property often. so why would you build on to your house if you didn't know you could give it to your children, if you didn't know you could even have it next year if the government might say no, i want someone else to live there. without a deed, people don't improve what they have. >> do people understand this, that communal property is not the best way? >> we don't understand it. we took over the indians in america. we made them poor because we put them on reservations and said, you can't own your own mortgage. >> it's so simple, but you do need to explain to people 'cause they don't often think about it. it's a little more complex than that. so 9:00 o'clock eastern time on the "fox business" network, john stossel will explain to you why this is so fundamental to our

country and to this day as well. can't wait fort special. >> thanks. >> thanks for being in. happy thanksgiving. if you're cook today, stick around. our butterball turkey talk line expert here to answer your questions. john goes to the restaurant. he just skips all those questions. i agree with you, john. then what are america's soldiers thankful for today? we just got brand-new video of our troops celebrating thanksgiving in afghanistan. it's coming up, top of the hour it's that time of year. time for campbell's green bean casserole. you'll find the recipe at campbellskitchen.com. ♪ campbell's. it's amazing what soup can do.

hours, it's going to really insure some safe turkey meat there. some other great ways, though, to use incorporated leftover turkey, we have introduced an app. you counsel load it from butterball.com. my oldest and i like to use this cooking not only turkey, but over 250 recipes on there. so definitely check it out. >> you don't call your kids little butterball, do you? >> i do. >> do you brush them with butter as well? >> it's calling your kids that. make sure you don't call your wife that. big mistakes. >> another e-mail from tennessee. i cook my butterball yesterday. how die warm it? >> another great question. i do want to mention that in addition to reaching us at 1-800 butterball, there are other ways. we have dietitians back home conducting live chats on butterball.com, facebook, twitter, pinterest, so mangolden

ways you can go about reaching us at butterball. to answer the question, as far as leftovers, two to three days again is ideal. for longer leftovers, go ahead and freeze it in storage two months. ideally use that in leftover stuffing within two months in the freezer. >> okay. thank you very much. >> then the warming thing? >> thank you. so when you do slice the meat off the bone, best to go ahead and sprinkle some gravy to keep the meat slices nice and moist and go ahead and put it in a shallow open roasting pan, 250-degree oven for about ten to 15 minutes or until it's hot. >> brilliant. >> nicole johnson, keep your e-mails and tweets and questions coming to us. thank you. now it doesn't feel like thanksgiving without a parade and here in new york, macy's has been putting on the biggest thanksgiving show in the country for 86 years.

rick reichmuth has been there every year i can remember. he's got a front row seat. i am so jealous, one of my favorite knew significances, rick. >> all right. clayton in the studio said you're one of his favorite musicians. >> i love him. what brilliant person. thank you. [ laughter ] >> we got chris isaacs here. the second i knew you were coming here, i hate to say it, but "wicked games" has been in my head for 30 minutes and i can't get it out. >> i didn't know there was two 6:00 o'clock in the day until this morning. i was in cincinnati last night and flew in last night and i'm so excited. i already met ronald mcdonald's whoopie goldberg. that's a pretty good day right there. right? >> a pretty good split. so you probably grew up like everybody watching this parade? >> i did. i called my mom last night and i told her, mom, i'm going to be on the parade.

she goes, do they know this? i said yeah, of course they know it. they invited me. i think she thought i was going to jump on or something. i said no, they invited me. >> she thought you were going to hold a balloon down or be in one of the clown suits? >> i would be happy to do any job. it's awesome to be here. we just drove in a little cart down the line and i'm just looking like a kid. i'm just going, there is a million things to see. >> you've been in this business for a while. 1984? >> yeah, that sounds about right. i've been in since the dead sea was sick. >> when you showed up, i said what are you working on right now and you said? >> we're always on tour. i mean, i just came from cincinnati. i'm headed to detroit after this. i'm here. i'm in the parade. i made it. >> are you going to get to eat somewhere today? >> i think i'm going to get -- they're giving me a lot of cranberry juice on the float. i'm hoping they have free cranberry juice. i'll be on the float for a couple of miles so my drummer told me it's really good for my

urinary tract. so i got that going for me. >> nice. are you singing something? >> i am. i'm singing "great balls of fire fire." if i can remember the lyrics, i'm singing. >> is there an album out or anything like that? >> it is like 50s stuff. so johnny cash attention elvis, all that kind of music. >> "great balls of fire," urinary tract infection. >> there you go. >> i made a comment while chris was making simultaneously on the parade. >> chris is very funny. such a great singer. >> he's been a special guest on a lot of television shows. really, really good. >> if you're a chris isaac fan, one of my all time favorite sessions "baha." go and download it. you will not be sad you did that >> get some cranberry juice. what else? >> we have to talk about a fox

news alert. this is a cease fire between israel and hamas. it's appearing to be holding this morning. it's halting eight days of intense air strikes. the question on everybody's minds, will it last? leeland vittert live near the israeli-gaza border this morning. so far so good? >> so far, so good. all is quiet on the southern front here. the only sounds we're hearing is the rumble of the tanks and the armored personnel carriers that israel brought down to these fields to possibly launch a ground invasion, heading along north along the highway. buses still with those reserve soldiers that they are now sending home as well. as we have gone through the day here in this cease fire helped in many ways, some say better than anybody expected, we're also seeing some of the 1 million israelis who live in the line of fire for those rockets, now returning home. for the past eight days, we've been at this shopping center. it was deserted. now you can barely find a place to park as israelis begin to try

and put their lives back together with a cease fire and return to some sense of normalcy. >> we want to be at home. we want to start again. they need to go to school and kindergarten. >> i feel we can go out and do whatever we want. of course i feel better. i haven't left the house in the last two weeks. i feel better, but still. any minute the alarm can go on. >> now, in the gaza strip streets which had been empty out of fear for air strikes quickly filled up with thousands of people out in celebration. hamas and islamic jihad both declared victory. there is a lot of work to be done in the gaza strip. israel hit more than 1500 targets there trying to get these rockets to stop. obviously a number of those were ammunitions facilities. but there is a lot of damage to buildings like banks and hamas' headquarters that need to be rebuilt there inside the gaza

strip. going forward what to watch for is how this plays out, especially as it relates to egypt l they decide to really crack down on the weapons smuggling into the gaza strip as the united states has said it's going to pressure egypt to do, and also iran's secret hand in this as they have both islamic jihad and the popular resistance committee in the gaza strip. whether they continue to push them toward more attacks or whether we see a long lasting cease fire. back to you. >> leeland vittert, thank you. >> happy thanksgiving, man. >> let's get to some of the other top stories. u.s. ambassador susan rice speaking out for the first time about the benghazi terrorist attack that left four americans dead. she is defending her comments. >> when discussing the attacks against our facilities in benghazi, i relied solely and squarely on the information provided to me by the intelligence community. i made clear that the information was preliminary and that our investigations would

give us the definitive answers. >> you may recall she went on the sunday talk shows days after the attack on september 11 and said the attack was spontaneous as a result of protests over an anti-muslim film. u.s. senator john mccain is criticized her for that. rice is firing back saying his comments are unfounded and she's looking forward to talking with him. stick a fork in hostess, dingdongs are dead. a bankruptcy judge giving the twinkie maker the green light to shut down and begin selling off its brands. the ruling coming one day after talks between the company and its second largest union, the bakers union, crumbled. as a result, 18,000 workers will be laid off immediately, just in time for thanksgiving. brand-new video this morning out of our troops overseas. they're celebrating thanksgiving. this one in kabul, afghanistan. after feasting on a traditional turkey meal, the soldiers still had enough energy to play a game of rugby. >> this is the first thanksgiving game.

so we're really excited about it. we've got a lot of participation from folks that normally don't play. so yeah. it's a great time. >> the army captain said he's thankful for the good food, but he definitely misses his family. as they all do. those are your headlines. >> thank you so much. coming up next on the show, real estate guru bob massi is dipping into his mail bag for you this thanksgiving. >> then tossed in the garbage and left to die, the dog survived and this morning we're giving thanks. >> oh. >> for all the folks that made it happen and what you can do to help joey, coming up. begin.

tomato, obviously. haha. there's more than that though, there's a kick to it. wahlalalalallala! smooth, but crisp. it's kind of like drinking a food that's a drink, or a drink that's a food, woooooh!

>> welcome back. the number of new homes being built in the united states hitting a four-year high in october. hinting at signs of a housing recovery. but many americans are still struggling. our next guest is dipping into the mail back to help answer some of your housing questions. >> ingentlemanings from las vegas, real estate guru, bob massi. nice to see you on this thanksgiving. happy thanksgiving to you.

>> happy thanksgiving. thank you very much. >> here is one of our first e-mails in this from nebraska from george. he says, i had a realtor insist that they could get me way over market value for my home. we learned it was overpriced. think they transferred me to a new realtor. when i asked for market analysis. now they want to quit. still hit me with commission due to survival clauses. what can i do? my dad is a realtor and always tries to say not give inflated numbers to people and get their hopes up? >> your dad knows his business because that's a problem. at this point in time, for them to charge a commission, unless they brought a new person in to buy this home, they're going to have a difficult time under the contract. one of the things i suggest is two things. one, really get a lawyer to look at the contract. and make sure that they have a good position legally to say look, you're not entitled to commission. you didn't do the market analysis, you overstated the price. therefore, there is no reason that you've earned any commission. second thing is reluctantly, if they're not willing to back off,

there are boards, real estate divisions, where you could file a complaint against the realtor for this kind of issue. hopefully the realtor will back you have if it did not bring a prospective buyer to the deal. >> good advice this. barbara from las vegas says we are under water. $70,000. i'm retiring next year. we can't pay off our second mortgage. should i short sell or let it go into foreclosure? >> you know, that is such a big decision to make. what i could tell her is this: there is nothing wrong with a short sale, as long as you can show there is a hardship and in addition, to make sure if a short sale is approved that you get what's called a waiver of deficiency. the difference of what's owed to the lender. the problem we have is we have this mortgage relief act that i've talked about for weeks that expires at the end of the year that could be major tax consequences to homeowners in america, hopefully congress will extend it which will recover if they do. in this case, you need to get somebody to look at it, talk to competent realtors. see if a short sale is something

that's viable. if it is, you got nothing to lose as long as you get that waiver of deficiency. >> good news there. nancy from savannah, georgia. city bank has put us into foreclosure and now we received notice that freddie mac owns the property. what does this mean for us moving forward? we also have a second mortgage. >> freddie mac really doesn't own the property. they probably don't understand. freddie mac, fannie and freddie owns the loans. city is servicing the loan for freddie mac in this situation. so if there is a foreclosure, it won't be freddie mac that's foreclosing. it will be city that is servicing the loan for freddie that will foreclose on the property. if the foreclosure takes place, that second mortgage will go away almost -- when i say go away, unsecured debt, it's like a credit card, most states they have the right to go after you for that second. so you want to get some good advice from a lawyer that will let you know the consequences of a foreclosure in your state,

particularly as it relates to the second mortgage. i apologize for my voice. i have a little allergy going today. but anyway, happy thanksgiving to everybody. >> you did great. happy thanksgiving to you as well. if you have any questions you want to ask bob directly, you can e-mail bob by logging on our web site and clicking on the shattered dreams tab. that will get you an e-mail to bob's in box. coming up on the show, he was tossed in the garbage and left to die, but joey the dog survived. this morning we are giving thanks for all the folks that actually made that happen and what you can do to help joey. he's in our studio. then just in time for thanksgiving, soldier dad home from war to surprise his daughter. the awesome reunion video you got to see coming up. er. >> hi, lieutenant colonel keith fuller serving in afghanistan. just wanted to say a shout out to my family back in massachusetts. my beautiful daughter, who is currently in college in southern california, and certainly last

but not least, my beautiful wife, suzanne. wishing everybody a happy holiday, both thanksgiving and a very merry christmas you

>> welcome back. 23 minutes past the hour. more than three months ago, three-month-old joey was severely injured when he was tossed out of a moving car. he's been able to walk and run again against all odds and on this holiday, we give much, much, much thanks to this miracle puppy. imaging choked up. joining us from the vet center is joey's new mom, dr. linda and the star of the hour, joey. >> for folks who don't know the story of joey, please remind them exactly what happened.

>> he was put in a garbage bag, thrown from a moving car and a good samaritan heard his crying when she pulled up to a stop sign, opened the bag and found this little puppy. he came to us in really bad shape. >> what were his injuries? >> he had three fractured vertebrae in his neck and shock and thoracic trauma and he was paralyzed in all four limbs and we didn't think he would walk again. >> seemingly he's doing great. how is he today? >> doing fantastic. >> he doesn't like the city. >> not crazy about the city, no. >> were you able to track down the folks that did this? >> no, i haven't heard any updates from the spca. i know they're still working on it. >> in situations like this, because you're a doctor, in situations like this, do you ever fine these people? >> sometimes. sometimes maximus one, a few years ago, where he set the poor pit bull on fire and unfortunately, he didn't make

it. that was awful. they found him. someone turned him in because of the reward. >> physically, obviously it's amazing that he's recovered. but mentally he seems to gentle. you would think a dog that was treated that way would be very aggressive towards anyone and not want to trust. >> yeah. or at least nervous around people. but he is a really lovable dog. he's got a great personality. he's wonderful with my two-year-old. they play all day. >> i'm sure there are people out there watching going, can we adopt him? you just keeping him temporarily? >> no, i adopted him. it's my guy. i couldn't let him go after everything. >> there are other stories like joey. you set up a nonprofit that is healing haven animal fund.org. what is that designed to do? >> help injured and sick animals that either their owners can't afford the urgent care they need or they're stray animals that come into a vet clinic that

really need care. and there has to be money somewhere to provide that, just like for joey. thank goodness that media helped him and get care he needed because it was a financially a big deal. >> we see those commercials that i know everybody that i know that sees them freaks out. they see them, they're so heart breaking. what can people do? if you're in a neighborhood and you see people when are putting their dogs or animals in peril, what can do you? call the police? >> yeah. absolutely. call your local spca, the a spca. if you see something, it should be reported. it's our obligation to report anything, any type of animal abuse so the animals get the care they need. >> it's great to have you. joey is a wonderful dog and again, let me remind you that web site, healinghavenanimalfund.org. thank you for being here.

we're thankful for joey. >> he's a very sweet dog. you did a nice job. all righty, coming up, don't be fooled. this is no dummy. shoppers, beware. that mannequin could be spying on you. wait 'til you hear this story. >> that's creepy. and we're taking you back live to preparations for the macy's thanksgiving day parade and sharing the cool new way you can get in on the action. don't go anywhere.

>> you're listening to coally

callet who we interviewed. she's in the parade. look at the crowd gathered on 6th avenue. >> all to see you. >> all to see me. i'm very flattered. no, they're not. people are waiting for us to come out of the building. >> i've never seen anything like this. there is mr. twinkie walking around. >> so if you can't get to the parade, you live in another part of the country and you have an obsession with the parade, they have launched annul that let's you actually make your own balloon and then actually control it using an app. a float. >> they've done it for android and shear what you do. you simply launch their app, macy's thanksgiving day parade app. the alpha mathic section and pick the costume you want to wear. let's pick this. you hit next and then it use has camera on the front you put your face in there and it's going to blow it up. >> it's going to blow it up or you are?

denomination in any specific faith, but certainly a god-centered faith. you look at abraham lincoln's thanksgiving proclamation of 1863. i put it up on my facebook page. read the whole thing. it's amazing to see what strong faith our country was very comfortable in accepting. >> because it wasn't a national holiday at that point and many people trace it to this proclamation as launching thanksgiving. >> that's right. he talks about the thanksgiving not just being oh, i am grateful, in other words, an emotion, but what is the source of our bountiful blessings as he refers to th as. and he says that's the almighty god. i encourage people to read it, maybe as a family before thanksgiving meals. that's a great tradition. pointing back to what this is all about. >> you want to read an excerpt is there there. >> i do therefore invite my fellow citizens in every part of the united states and also those who are at sea and those who are

that she needed to pray for my dad. she said i never met your dad, i don't know how he is, he might be totally fine, but i can't get your dad off of my heart and out of my prayers. she said, this is kind of crazy. let me show a picture that we have. this is my dad going into surgery. this is two weeks ago. that's my mom, my sister, one of my six siblings, and myself going in. the doctor found his widow maker, 90% blocked. the doctor came out halfway through the operation and said, we're putting a stint in. this was a life saving procedure. he's got new energy, new life. >> has he met this friend? >> he has not. i wrote back to her. i didn't hear back for a few days and then she said, now my faith is stronger because i thought maybe i was a little crazy. right? but she had the courage to actually reach out to somebody, she found my e-mail off the internet or something, she found me, she wrote and because of

that, this thanksgiving is very special to us. i want to say one last thing. i received a beautiful thing on facebook the other day saying you know what? we talk about thanksgiving being all about family. there is some people who don't have family and that doesn't mean that we can't celebrate thanksgiving. she said, what i'm going to do is go work in an old person's home. and i'm going to thank god for all my blessings even though i don't have family in my life because thanksgiving is not just about all the wonderful things that we would like to have, family and friends, but also thanking god for the blessings that sometimes are hard to see when we're going through hard times. >> we're always thankful for our troops that aren't able to be with their families, those overseas. i know that's difficult for them. >> thankful to be with you guys. >> we're always grateful to have you here. happy thanksgiving. it gave us chills. >> yeah. >> happy thanksgiving to you and your family. >> i'm cooking for them. >> oh, good. >> oh, boy. are you a good cook? >> i've never cooked for anyone

our friends from the bass pro shops. >> we are back with luke snyder. good to have you here. >> thank you for having us. >> we're doing some turkey over there. we're starting with the turkey. >> we're going to fry it up. me and luke are going to do that. i'm going to scooter with the good stuff, the injection. >> you get as much as you can. there is not anything about getting too much injection in this. >> is this butter? >> this is a select marinade. today we're using tony cacacere. you can get them at the store. if you run out, come back 'cause we got plenty. >> you move it around? >> get plenty. there is no such -- >> in the side? i'm going to do the other side 'cause i like plenty. i'm not good at this. >> good thing you're not a surgeon. >> it creeps me out, the syringe, i'll be honest with you. we'll stick it in the other side, move it around a little

bit. >> today we're going to use the butterball electric turkey fryer. this is for indoor use. >> i'm going to take your word for it. steve is going to give us an assist. you're going to lift this bird up, put it in the basket. >> the main thing is lower it into this oil. we're going to lower it very nice and easy. >> for those who haven't had a fried turkey, what exactly is the key here? what's the appeal? >> what this is going to do is with the marinade that we just put in it, it's going to immediately seal the flavor inside the bird. this flavor is going to unmatch just about any other turkey on the market. it's way much quicker than a conventional oven. >> i notice you're wearing gloves. is that a good idea?

>> i think it's a precaution. as long as you are safe, it should be fine. any time you're dealing with oil, you want to lower it nice and easy so it doesn't splash up. >> the fry is 119.95. rare combination, professional bull rider and cook. you guys have the side dishes? >> yes. instead of doing regular old-fashioned mashed potatoes, we did sweet potatoes. they're twice baked. they're super easy. you buy sweet potatoes, put them in the oven, bake 'til they're soft, you can use cream cheese, a little maple syrup and brown sugar. put them in either a big baking dish or these individual ramekin, put them back in the oven, bake 'til they're brown and you can put marshmallows on them. put them back in the oven and they would brown and melt and they are delicious. they are very healthy for you. especially if you use the low fat cream cheese. >> i guess if you have one of those heat things, you can go like that. >> exactly. >> after that we've got stuffing. you can use whatever stuffing

recipe that you want, whatever you love. to add a twist, we've got this turkey jerky. which you can get at bass pro. it adds saltiness and texture. it's really good. >> turkey is often a little tough. >> it is. >> when they're bits, it's great. >> kind of like bacon. after that, we've got this fresh cranberry. instead of using the can, you don't want to do that. you can get two bags of fresh cranberry, orange juice and sugar. boil that. three or four minutes, the cranberries will start to pop. then you take it off the boiler, you let them cool and that's that's it. that's all you have to do. >> sounds delicious. >> more from the folks at bass pro shop when we come back on this thanksgiving edition with wholesome noodles and bite sized chicken, nothing brings you together
